But if you evaluate them properly and still draft them high, you aren't wasting draft capital (Derrick Henry, Adrian Peterson, Jonathan Taylor).  You are far more apt to get a quality RB in the first three rounds of the draft than you are UDFA.

Prove me wrong.

2021 Chiefs? CEH was outrushed by a UDFA and had 130yds more than Mahomes.  

Personally I find the sweet spot for value to be rounds 3-4. Obviously you're not going to get a Henry or Peterson to fall that far. But, taking RBs early is going to put an expectation on many that may be unattainable. For example, the Giants are 19-46 since taking Barkley second. Was (Is?) he worth it?
